Please, anybody, I need Mt. Lion's version of the “MeshKit.framework” because I overwrote it and Mt. Lion will no longer boot up. It just hangs at either the grey screen just before coming up on the desktop, or it hangs at the rotating hash circle and never finishes. Will somebody please email me a copy of their Mt. Lion's “MeshKit.framework” found in /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks? PLEASE! Agreed. Please, anybody, I need Mt. Lion’s version of the “MeshKit.framework” because I overwrote it and Mt.

Would also like to use the "old" Sow Leopard Preview in Mountain Lion. Is there a trick to get this back. the old trick used for Lion does no longer seem to work. Thanks for any clues I agree.

I have managed to import the older Preview, but can't make it be the default. If someone could possibly explain how to "manipulate OS X extended file attributes" as David P Oster wrote, I would be most grateful!!!!

I used Preview to change and attach color sync profile to my photo files. Preview SL could do it without changing the file itself, beside the obvious CS profile change. Lion Preview will do it only using the Export command and doing so will change the exif. Restoring PreviewSL does not help. Assigned CS Profile will not be preserved and upon saving it will revert to original profile. Save As will change the file.... It looks like something is missing and has to be restored in addition to two folders mentioned in the article. Unfortunately, this tip has limited results….
